Chapter 5 The Plague
plague?

Li Hengqu was a little confused after hearing what eunuch Wang Chengen said. When Li Zicheng attacked Beijing, there was no record of the plague in the history books. You must know that history books will not ignore such a major event as the plague in the army.

Did I remember wrong?
He quickly turned on his phone and searched for this period of history, and found that there was indeed no plague in the Dashun Army.

Li Zicheng attacked Beijing on March [-]th and successfully entered the city on the [-]th. However, Chongzhen hanged himself in Meishan on the [-]th.

So where did this plague come from?

He zoomed in on the military camp in Dashun and found that there was indeed no sign of breaking out of the camp. Looking closer, he saw that the military was indeed in a state of decline, and the sounds of coughing and nose-blowing filled the entire military camp.

A large number of soldiers were sitting on the ground casually, throwing their weapons aside, looking depressed.

If at this time, Daming sent a group of troops to attack, this Dashun army would probably be completely accounted for here.

However, based on Li Hengqu's understanding of the military generals in the late Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that those fishing experts have no intention of seizing this God-given opportunity.

So here’s the problem. It’s impossible for such a serious plague not to be recorded in history books.
When I observed this army in Counter World before, they were all in good condition and ready to take action. How did they become like this in the past few days?What happened during this period?

He drew his attention to Li Zicheng's big tent. He was the only one in the tent. He was lying on the couch, with snot hanging from his mouth without wiping it, and he kept chanting:
This is God's punishment for me, this is God's punishment for me...

Li Hengqu couldn't help but sneeze when he saw him like this, and then he suddenly thought of something:
Damn it, where is my medicine?
He turned on his phone and checked it. It showed that the medicine had been delivered four days ago, but where was the medicine?He got up to look for it, but felt dizzy and almost fell down.

Only then did he realize that he hadn't closed his eyes for four days. Even Ao Ying wouldn't be able to sleep like this. Besides, he also had a bad cold.

Are you still worried about the world-ending plague?If this continues, I will die suddenly.

He glanced at WeChat and found that his supervisor had not sent a text message to ask about his situation, which made him a little confused. After all, he only took two days off.

Are you giving up on me?

He didn't have the energy to think about anything else at the moment, so he staggered to the bedside, and then plunged into the endless darkness.

I don’t know how long it took, maybe several hours, maybe just a minute, Li Hengqu suddenly sat up from the bed:
"Sneeze! Bad cold! Plague!"

Is it...
I had sneezed uncontrollably into the box earlier, and many soldiers had drooled on me, and I was suffering from a bad cold at that time.

Coughing, sneezing, and runny nose, the symptoms of this plague are basically similar to those of a severe cold.

So the plague that is spreading among this army is most likely caused by my bad cold?
Uh... This...
I originally just wanted to be a bystander, occasionally saving a few people to fill my sense of justice, but why did I get into trouble?

And it was a catastrophic one. First, the eruption of Mount Fuji caused a stir, and now it caused a plague among the army, causing tens of thousands of people to be infected.

The note also said that I should save the world. Now it seems that the person who sent the box to me made a very hasty decision!

Now that the matter has come to this, the most important rescue right now is to make up for the mistakes he has made. I hope it is not too late.

Since there is a high probability that this army has been infected by a cold from me, I can simply give them cold medicine.

I don't know if these ancient people's bodies, which have not been forged by technology, can withstand the properties of this cold medicine.

And there is a troublesome question, why do they want to take the medicine I give them, and why do they dare to take it? No normal person would rashly take something from an unknown source.

So I have to communicate with them.

Li Hengqu faced the fog and tried to shout: "Hello!" On the screen, a depressed veteran looked up at the sky with some doubts in his heart:
The sun is scorching hot, why do I seem to hear thunder?

Li Hengqu shouted a few more words and saw many people looking up at the sky. This showed that the sound could be transmitted to the counter world. However, it could be seen from their confused expressions that these people did not seem to understand what he was saying?
Li Hengqu continued to shout:
"Happy New Year, big brother and big sister!"

"I am the Jade Emperor, please respond quickly!"

"I'm looking in the distance, above the moon..."

There was still no response, but the group of people began to drag themselves towards the tent...
It seems that although the fog cannot stop the sound, it can convert the sound into another form and pass it on, which prevents active communication between the outside world and the counter-world.

Suddenly, a text appeared on the display: Do you want to enable communication mode?
Communication model?Can you still play like this?

Li Hengqu didn't hesitate and clicked confirmation directly, and another sentence popped up:

Please read the user agreement carefully!Then select Agree and Continue or Disagree.

What the hell?Confused, he opened the user agreement and found that there was only one sentence:

Once you choose to agree and continue, your bond with the third universe will deepen, and this process is irreversible.

The third universe?Could this reverse world be the so-called third universe?

And what the hell is binding?Physical form of binding?This can't be done.Network form of binding?It seems that I haven’t entered any identity information, so it’s impossible. Could it be soul binding?
And it’s even more metaphysical that this process is irreversible. If I want, I can throw this box away at any time. How can you make it irreversible?A bunch of FBI suddenly broke into my house?

Agree or disagree?
Li Hengqu thought for a moment, but still being cautious as usual, he clicked "disagree". After all, the online world has too many routines, so it is better not to mess with the word "confirmation".

At this time, a text appears on the screen: You have chosen to agree and continue, and the communication mode has been opened for you!
What's wrong with this?I clearly disagree.

Li Hengqu quickly searched for the cancel icon on the screen, but as the text disappeared, only the image of the counter-world remained on the screen.

He clicked randomly on the screen, but no icon appeared except that the screen was offset by his click.

But don’t fool me by saying that you are very tired now and your eyes are dim, so you accidentally clicked on the wrong one. I am tired, but I am sober. I can still distinguish between disagreement and agreement and continue with these two. The length of the options.

This routine is too barbaric. The pop-up advertisements on illegal websites are not so unreasonable.

Li Hengqu had nothing to say. He turned on his phone to see if there was any special message sent. After waiting for a while, there was no text message.

He looked at his body again and found that there were no special patterns or anything, nor did he feel any discomfort.

So am I really bound?
Li Hengqu's mentality was a little numb. He had never been so speechless before, but now that the matter was over, let's try the so-called communication mode.

He pulled the screen to Li Zicheng's tent, and then tentatively shouted at the screen: Mr. Li?
March 1644, [-] AD

Li Zicheng is very sensitive now. A few days ago, he was knocked to the ground by a sudden strong wind and thunderstorm. Shortly after that, a plague began to break out in the army, so he was very afraid that this was God's punishment for him.

Thunder suddenly sounded outside just now. How could it happen suddenly with the scorching sun shining brightly?His fragile heart at this moment could no longer withstand the changes.

"Mr. Li?"

"Who? Who is talking again?"
